Leadership in today's organizations is a tough business. Organizational leaders face a number of challenges as their jobs, and the world around them, become increasingly complex. Trends, such as organizational "delayering," rapid technological advances, and increased employee empowerment require that leaders adapt their techniques and styles of leadership to meet these new challenges. Consequently, there has been an explosion of interest in leadership in recent years as researchers and management educators struggle to understand the process of leadership development, how it operates, and what characteristics make effective leaders. Born of these questions, the 11th Annual Kravis-de Roulet Leadership Conference at Claremont McKenna College brought together an impressive slate of scholars whose theories, research, and cutting-edge techniques are now gathered together in this impressive volume. Each chapter asks and answers questions about the current state of the field while providing future direction for research to help bridge the gap between leadership researchers and leadership development practitioners. Notable topics include chapters on "e-leadership" and leadership within the "virtual" organization, exploring 360-degree feedback, the importance of "social capital," and a comprehensive analysis of the well-researched theory of Leader Member Exchange.

Liderazgo es una palabra que nunca parece estar fuera de moda. Resuena en la mayoría de los ámbitos de la sociedad, y no es para menos si se piensa que cualquier emprendimiento depende de la calidad y el buen desempeño de quienes lo lideran. Por esta razón existen tantas herramientas que están a disposición de quien desea progresar para llegar a ser un líder exitoso. Posiblemente tú seas un líder en ejercicio, te estés entrenando para ocupar un lugar de liderazgo, o tal vez reconozcas que tienes el potencial para ser un excelente líder. Sea cual fuere tu caso, debes hacerte algunas preguntas: ¿la meta más elevada es llegar a ser un excelente líder?, ¿habrá alguna meta superior que esté más allá del liderazgo? En este libro aprenderás que: El concepto de liderazgo practicado en la actualidad es un engaño que conduce a alimentar el egoísmo y la ambición personal. La función de dirigir no tiene como finalidad servirse a uno mismo, sino servir a otros. Existe una meta más alta que llegar a ser un líder, porque la intención original de Dios con el ser humano va más allá del liderazgo. Mientras lees, respondes y trabajas en Más allá del liderazgo, comprenderás una realidad que te sorprenderá, porque tu destino es ser mucho más que un líder. Descúbrelo por ti mismo. Leadership is a word that never seems to be out of style. It resonates in most areas of society, and it is no wonder if you think that any undertaking depends on the quality and good performance of those who lead it. For this reason, there are so many tools available to anyone who wants to progress to become a successful leader. You may be a practicing leader, training for a leadership role, or you may recognize that you have the potential to be an excellent leader. Whatever your case, you should ask yourself some questions: Is the highest goal to become an excellent leader? Is there a higher goal that is beyond leadership? In this book you will learn that: The concept of leadership practiced today is a deception that leads to nurturing selfishness and personal ambition. The function of leading is not intended to serve oneself, but to serve others. There is a higher goal than becoming a leader, because God's original intention with man goes beyond leadership. As you read, respond and work on Beyond Leadership, you will understand a reality that will surprise you, because your destiny is to be much more than a leader. Find out for yourself.
